not bad for a cold try
Got my shine 4 with clear switches today, liking it so far.
200 lines of code a day
91 with a shit laptop keyboard, almost 2 years of usage and still haven't got used to the fucking thing
10fastfingers should add a "programmer" mode which includes a bunch of semicolons, parentheses, quotes, hashes, asterisks, ampersands, and all the other glorious trip-your-shit-ups and see if anyone can get more than 60 WPM
>tfw type much faster with a rubber dome keyboard than with this K70

Speed isn't important in programming, you can be the fastest typer in all of India, but as long as you aren't Cisco certified, you're not going to be making successful scam sites.
Fuck 10fastfingers, it's not an indication of shit you'd actually type, words are all about as long, there's no punctuation.
http://play.typeracer.com/ is where the big boys play.

>Have the exact same amount of keystrokes and no errors
>I am only better than 96.94%
>>51989501
>same here
But that's because most people are used to not having to lift their fingers much from the keyboard. The k70 looks very nice, and that's partly due to the way the keys are so high on cherry mx keyboards. I can type a lot faster and more accurate on a shitty chiclet, but typing on a mechanical keyboard that looks nice is a whole other level of satisfaction.

If you've been programming for longer than 3 months you have all this shit memorized already.
It wouldn't be any harder at all.
On my 13" MBP Retina. I really miss having a mechanical keyboard...going to have to buy another. My Razer BlackWidow stopped working :(

Anons, how do I type the proper way? I've been using my index fingers my whole life and I need help breaking the habit.
>>51990462
Put the fingers on asdf jkl;
Then learn where the other letters are and which finger to use
Then practice a bunch

Maybe I should try when I'm not on my phone
>>51990374
Is this what you use?
93.
meh.
supposedly it's the 96th percentile, good enough.
I got 79, I recently started trying to get better at home row typing. My old typing method used to have me at ~95.
>>51990311
I got 142 wpm on typeracer and I usually get 125 on 10fastfingers
ok pls don't make fun of me. I know this is really shit but I've never actually learned how to type before teaching myself like a year ago when I was using my index fingers
>>51990779
I literally type twice as fast as you only using one hand. I'm not even joking
>>51990779
I'd also like to clarify that I backspaced a lot to get words right. Was I not supposed to?
guys i have a problem...
>>51991030
How long did it take you to post this?
>>51991078
not long i my keyboard was in the wrong layout
Dvorák mustard racist!!
>>51985789
I do transcription work for side money.
>>51990311
I actually get about the same score there that I do on 10 fast fingers.
lot of typefuckers and professional internet commenters in this thread
>>51990824
no you are not. making mistakes will slow you down much more than typing slower.
>>51990612
No, right now I'm using my phone (htc one mthrottled (m9)). Normally I use my bst (pc), it has a pretty generic-looking case (antec gx500), a non-glossy plastic 24" 1080p monitor, and a corsair k70. But right now I'm not home so my phone is my only option.

>Speed isn't important in programming
in fact you could probably go ahead and call it detrimental
>>51985789
From a while back.
>touch type
>left hand stays on home keys, uses all fingers
>right hand is just index and middle finger
>always, i mean always, tap the space bar with my right index finger
how fucked up am i and can i get gud?
For what it's worth, I play the guitar, and while i finger pick very well, i always just use my first 3 fingers.
I am right handed.
i'm on my laptop. i think i'm probably faster on my desktop but i can't find out right now.

I generally think speed is pretty important when programming, just not the speed at which you type
>>51990564
Literally this.
>>51990328
Do you think that /g/ could've raised the average that much?
>>51990343
Meh, my boss still finger types.
So yeah I've kinda gotten bad recently. Have had the 100wpm blue balls for aaages.
>>51992709
It's as if that was the context in which the statements were made.
>>51986635
That it?
>>51994029
Now in my native language and alphabet.
I literally had food between me and the keyboard (I'm a fat fuck) and fudged a few key strokes. Typing random words is a bit weird, but whatever. I still did alright.
IF U ARE UNDER 100 WPM KILL URSELF
Just got a mechanical keyboard yesterday and gave it a run. Breddy good.
